Rooftop Dream - Jacuzzi · Root LU

Living above the rooftops

Step into your Rooftop Dream, nestled between Lucerne and Zurich — an attic retreat made to fulfil every wish. A birthday celebration, a romantic escape, a business trip, a family outing or a honeymoon: this haven welcomes them all, for up to four guests.

Enjoy candlelit dinners by the fireplace indoors, or warm up with a glass of wine in the hot whirlpool on the terrace. Grill with the people you love, or simply gather around the fire pit. Everything is on one level, and the building has a lift. The open-plan living and dining area opens through generous glazing onto the terrace. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a V-Zug cooker, two bedrooms, a bathroom with bathtub, a separate shower room with WC, and a laundry with washing machine and dryer, free of charge.

The roof terrace of around 87.8 m² has a whirlpool, fire pit, barbecue, hammock and covered seating and dining areas for every kind of weather. The whirlpool is kept at around 34 °C during the day and 36 °C in the evening, and cools back down to 34 °C at night. The building was completed in 2016, and the apartment is fully furnished.

Absolutely dreamy – a clear 10 out of 10! […] Terrace & jacuzzi: a true haven of well-being with tasteful accessories, a barbecue and a great jacuzzi, which is a real highlight, especially with the evening lighting.

The apartment is beautifully done up. You can tell that a lot of effort and thought has gone into the furnishings.

This apartment didn’t feel like a “typical holiday apartment” at all, but much more like a “second home”. […] The roof terrace is very homely and offers plenty of shady spots in sunny weather and plenty of covered areas when it rains.

The view is breathtaking and the surroundings are so quiet that you can easily sleep on the terrace lounge.
